Wheat Germ Extract<br />
Product Size Cat.# Price ($)<br />
Wheat Germ Extract 5 × 200 µl L4380 260.00<br />
For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />
Description: Wheat Germ Extract contains the cellular components necessary<br />
for protein synthesis (tRNA, ribosomes, initiation, elongation and termination<br />
factors). Wheat Germ Extract is prepared by grinding wheat germ in an extraction<br />
buffer followed by centrifugation to remove cell debris. The supernatant is<br />
subjected to chromatography that separates endogenous amino acids and<br />
plant pigments from the extract. The extract is also treated with micrococcal<br />
nuclease to destroy endogenous mRNA and thus reduce background translation<br />
to a minimum.<br />
Features:<br />
• Optimized: Extract contains an energy-regenerating system (phosphocreatine/phosphocreatine<br />
kinase), spermidine (to stimulate the efficiency of<br />
chain elongation), magnesium acetate and potassium acetate.<br />
• Flexible: Three Amino Acid Mixtures are provided, which enable different<br />
choices of radioisotopes.<br />
• Robust: Potassium Acetate is provided to enhance translation for a wide<br />
range of mRNAs.<br />

Storage Conditions: Store at –70°C or below. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.<br />

T7 Sample System<br />
Product Size Cat.# Price ($)<br />
T7 Sample System<br />
For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />
1 each L5900 241.00<br />
Description: The T7 Sample System is designed to facilitate the optimization<br />
of individual gene expression by offering four unique in vitro translation systems<br />
to evaluate. The system consists of samples of: TnT ® T7 Quick for PCR DNA,<br />
TnT ® T7 Quick Coupled Transcription/Translation System, TnT ® Coupled Wheat<br />
Germ Extract System and E. coli T7 S30 Extract System for Circular DNA.<br />
All of the coupled systems utilize RNA generated by a T7 phage promoter.<br />
Criteria such as post-translational modifications, ionic optimization and detection<br />
methods (i.e., non-isotopic) should be considered when choosing an in vitro<br />
system. In some cases only direct experimental results will confirm which<br />
system is best for specific genes.<br />
Features:<br />
• Variety: Four major in vitro translation systems to evaluate.<br />
• Value: No requirement for the purchase of several large expensive<br />
systems.<br />
• Reliability: Comprised of rigorously quality-controlled reagents to ensure<br />
the highest level of transcription/translation.<br />
• Optimization: Determine which system is best for individual genes.<br />
Storage Conditions: Store at –70°C.<br />

Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate, Untreated<br />
Product Size Cat.# Price ($)<br />
Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate, Untreated<br />
For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />
1 ml L4151 186.00<br />
Description: Untreated Rabbit Reticulocyte Lysate contains the cellular<br />
components necessary for protein synthesis (tRNA, ribosomes, amino acids,<br />
initiation, elongation and termination factors) but has not been treated with<br />
micrococcal nuclease. Untreated Lysate is used primarily for the isolation<br />
of these components and as an abundant source of endogenous globin<br />
mRNA. Untreated Lysate is prepared from New Zealand white rabbits in the<br />
same manner as treated lysates with the exception that it is not treated with<br />
micrococcal nuclease.<br />
Features:<br />
• Reliable: Consistent reticulocyte production in each lot.<br />

Luciferase Control RNA<br />
Product Size Conc. Cat.# Price ($)<br />
Luciferase Control RNA 20 µg 1 mg/ml L4561 193.00<br />
For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />
Description: Luciferase Control RNA is a unique functional control for in<br />
vitro translation reactions. Luciferase Control RNA is an uncapped in vitrotranscribed<br />
RNA containing a 30-base poly(A) tail that produces functional<br />
luciferase when translated. Control reactions are monitored easily by a luciferase<br />
assay for the production of luminescence generated from the full-length<br />
luciferase.<br />
Features:<br />
• Convenient: Control reactions are easily monitored by a luciferase assay<br />
for luminescence.<br />
• Safe: Non-radioactive format to monitor control activity.<br />
Storage Conditions: Store at –70°C.<br />
Luciferase SP6/T7 Control DNAs<br />
Product Size Cat.# Price ($)<br />
Luciferase SP6 Control DNA 20 µg L4741 193.00<br />
Luciferase T7 Control DNA<br />
For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />
20 µg L4821 193.00<br />
Description: The Luciferase SP6 and T7 Control DNAs are used as functional<br />
controls in the TnT ® Quick Coupled and TnT ® Coupled Transcription/Translation<br />
Systems. The Control DNAs contain the gene for luciferase under transcriptional<br />
control of a phage RNA polymerase promoter. All constructs carry a 30-base<br />
pair poly[d(A)/d(T)] tail following the luciferase gene. Control reactions are<br />
monitored easily by the production of luminescence, which is generated from<br />
full-length luciferase and the addition of necessary components. Luciferase<br />
Control DNAs are supplied as 0.5mg/ml solutions in TE buffer.<br />
Storage Conditions: Store at –20°C.<br />
